After being in session less than a week, Oklahoma lawmakers have already sent a controversial House bill through committee.

House Bill 2597 would essentially allow many gun owners to carry without a license.

Under the bill, it would allow "the carrying of a firearm, concealed or unconcealed, loaded or unloaded, by a person who is twenty one years of age or older or by a person who is eighteen years of age but not yet twenty one years of age and the person is a member or veteran of the United States Armed Forces, Reserves or National Guard or was discharged under honorable conditions from the United States Armed Forces, Reserves or National Guard, and the person is otherwise not disqualified from the possession or purchase of a firearm under state or federal law and is not carrying the firearm in furtherance of a crime."

The bill also states that those who are illegally in the United States would not be able to possess a weapon.
